Circuit training with Becky
This morning we loved our circuit training with Becky, we did star jumps, mountain climbers, push ups and spotty dogs.
Acro & cheer showcase
Today we had our final acro & cheer showcase of the year. It really put a smile on all of our faces seeing how far all of the children have come from attending lunch clubs this year. Well done everyone and thank you to Miss Ellie for facilitating it!
Do you brush your teeth?
This week in Crew we have been exploring the importance of brushing our teeth, daily. We explored the effects of different drinks on our teeth by using eggs, the shell is similar to our tooth enamel. We placed an egg in water, dilute juice and a fizzy drink. We were shocked to see how the dilute juice impacted the egg shell, causing it to dissolve. This reiterated how important to brush our teeth twice a day, before bed and in the morning. It was fascinating to watch how the shells dissolved and made some really strange formations after just leaving it in the liquid for a day. Imagine not brushing your teeth for a day!
Athlete visit: Rebekah Green
We are excited to announce that this years athlete visiting school is Rebekah Green.
Rebekah has been kayaking for around 8 years, 4 of which have been in a playboat. Rebekah trains regularly at her local venue, Lee valley White Water Centre and also works at Above and Below Kayak retailer store on site
Until last year Rebekah had only ever competed in k1, but the opportunity of a new women’s category and the encouragement from team mates Ottie and Tamsyn inspired Rebekah to convert an old kayak into a c1.
Although this discipline ‘is challenging’ Rebekah has really enjoyed the process of progression, especially while training in the worlds feature at Holme Pierrepont.
Rebekah will be visiting school Monday 1st July!
Please bring sponsor forms in by Friday 28th June 10am, so it gives time to calculate the money and organise everything.
Scottie’s Heroes
This week in Scottie’s was such a challenge! We worked hard to be observant without using our voices. We worked as a team to patrol our forest school, to look for unknown items, which many were camouflaged. It was tricky to start with however once we started looking beyond the bright coloured objects it became much easier. Charlie was our work hard hero this week.
Water Safety
Today, we were very lucky to be part of a live talk with Yorkshire Water about the importance of being safe near water. It was really interesting to listen to some of the hidden dangers around open water. The main messages were to stay away from the edge and ensuring that we don’t try to go in after someone who is having difficulty. It’s important that we call for help and don’t put ourselves into danger. We ended the call with a quiz, safe to say we had all discovered so much and scored full marks! We then continued our work by spotting hidden dangers and creating water safety posters to share with our grown ups.
